ホンクンのネコなどの著作者。
墨絵伝道師。
墨絵の観点を活用し、シンプルに描く。子どもたちも描きたくなるような絵を描くことが理想。
書画一致の現在形をコンセプトに文字と絵のいい感じの融合を目指している。

自身が小さい頃に触れた文化や好奇心を大事にしその頃の感覚を大事に表現。「小学生の頃にやりたかったものを大の大人が一生懸命にやる」ももう一つのコンセプト。実際にホンクンのキャラクターの基礎は小学校3年生の時に描いたマンガが基礎にある。

2023年末まで神保町で路面店を運営しホンクンのネコのオリジナルグッズを展開。テレビにも2度紹介される。大変好評で現在みなとみらいなど日本各地に展開を開始した。

ホンクンのネコは日本武道館などさまざまなコラボレーション実績がある。そして、満を持してネコのみならず新しいキャラクターを生み出し世に出し始める。いずれも思い切りのよい独特の線とバランス感がチャームポイントとなり世界観を構築している。

子どもたちと楽しむ「墨絵おえかき」イベントも学校やショッピングモールなどでも多数開催。海外旅行者向けの「墨絵クラス」は発行部数世界一のガイドブック「lonely planet」にも掲載された。いずれのクラスもワイワイとみんなで楽しむスタイルで好評を博した。

墨絵と線を通して世界を繋ぐことが一番の目標。
夢は世界中で一斉におえかきをしてモチ(ホンクンのネコのキャラクター)を描くこと。

Author of Honkun's Cat and other works.
Sumi-e evangelist.
Utilizing the viewpoint of sumi-e, he draws simply. His ideal is to draw pictures that children will want to draw too.
He aims to create a nice fusion of letters and pictures based on the concept of the present form of calligraphy and painting congruence.

He values the culture and curiosity he came into contact with when he was a child, and he expresses the feelings he had at that time with great care. Another concept is "a grown-up trying his best to do what he wanted to do when he was in elementary school. In fact, the foundation of Hongkun's character is based on a manga he drew when he was in the third grade of elementary school.

Until the end of 2023, he will operate a street store in Jimbocho and offer original goods of Hongkun's cats. He has been featured twice on TV. The store has been so well received that it is now being opened in Minatomirai and other locations in Japan.

Hongkun's cats have been featured in various collaborations, including at the Nippon Budokan. And now, with great enthusiasm, he has begun to create and introduce not only cats but also new characters to the world. Each of his characters has a unique sense of balance and bold lines, which are the charm points of his work, and which create a world view.

He also holds many "sumi-e drawing" events with children at schools and shopping malls. The "Sumi-e class" for overseas travelers was featured in "lonely planet," the world's largest circulated guidebook. All classes were well received for their lively and enjoyable style.

His main goal is to connect the world through sumi-e ink painting and lines.
His dream is to draw Mochi (Honkun's cat character) in a simultaneous drawing all over the world.
